Trump Announces New ‘Board of Peace’ with Financial Buy-In
President Donald Trump has invited at least eight additional countries to join his newly formed “Board of Peace,” a group intended to guide the next phase of recovery in Gaza and perhaps expand U.S. influence in global affairs. Hungary and Vietnam have publicly accepted the invitations, according to statements from both governments.
According to a U.S. official who requested anonymity due to the confidential nature of the board’s charter, a $1 billion contribution guarantees permanent membership. A three-year appointment is available without a financial contribution. Funds raised will be allocated to rebuilding Gaza.
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, a strong ally of Trump, will join the board, confirmed Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó on Sunday. Vietnam’s Communist Party chief, To Lam, has also accepted the invitation, as stated by the Vietnamese foreign ministry.
Invitations have also been extended to:
- India (according to a senior government official)
- Australia (currently under consideration)
- Jordan
- Greece
- Cyprus
- Pakistan
- Canada
- Turkey
- Egypt
- Paraguay
- Argentina
- Albania
The U.S. plans to release the official membership list in the coming days, potentially during the World Economic Forum.
